No hate or anything... just curious... why did they have to resort to making the kid play the role of another…
Toddler Child actors sometimes have genderless casting calls because they can pass for the other gender, since they haven't grown into their features yet.
In this case, the casting directors felt the boy looked a lot like the actress that played his mother in the drama.
It isn't a new thing. My class play in my first year of uni theatre course casted a toddler girl as a male role since she played the part and delivered her lines better than the other child actor auditions.
It has even happened in dramas like juvenile justice where an actress in her twenties portrayed a teenage boy. It depends on who is the best fit for the role. That how "acting" works.
I have been watching all his works (he's one of my favorite actors) I could find starting from the most recent to the older ones and I just watched just friends. Oh wow.....
Perfection omg! F*ckng perfect. The actors, the child actors omg!! They are soooo good. The ending song "miserere" by ha hyun woo made me sob so much. All the osts went perfectly with the scenes. This was a well made and amazing series. The production team, cast and crew, I applaude you. Never have I seen such a perfect cast. Such a perfect everything.
Hakyeon's character and the entire episode 10 made me cry my eyes out about a dog and I don't like pets all that muchT^T. The dialogue the characters had with the dog was so moving. The dog acted so well too. How could that cute creature express its emotions so well.

They act.
His lines delivery there is one of the worst I've seen in all his acting roles.
I'm glad he grew as an actor the more years passed by. Watching all his works makes me appreciate his growth along the years
He's really.....versatile.
